"Loyalty Reigns" exposes the raw and often ugly truth about survival in a world tainted by jealousy, rivalry, violence, drama and mayhem; disagreements settled only by bullets and blood. The question whose answer determines who lives or dies that day is, "Will Loyalty Reign or will the storms of betrayal make it hail?" Be for warned, it's not a fairy tale or a story for the squeamish or the faint-hearted, but if you're unafraid to be inoculated with a dose of reality, jump into a Destinations Cab and join Jap Cureton for an "adults-only" tour through the unforgiving world where only "Loyalty Reigns," and honor rules. This story chronicles the act of deception where there is no honor amongst thieves; where mayhem thrives in a sinful world of MONEY, SEX, and POWER. Decrypt coincidences, coordinated murders, set-ups, perpetrated by Blueberry, and dishonest Agents will test ones quest of LOYALTY REIGNS Jap Cureton is presently at work on the second book of the "Loyalty Reigns" trilogy.

Will San ever rise to the top or will the despair continue to plague her life and bury her alive? San was raised by the treacherous streets of Charlotte North Carolina - AKA: Queen City. She had been introduced to a life of despair at an early age. Her mother Wanda had been responsible for all the pain she would soon endure. San had been subjected to her mother's evil deeds and had been forced to adapt to unbearable environments. She had gone through many nights without heat to keep warm; much less food to fill her stomach...but that never stopped her from loving her mother Wanda. San's mother would do anything to get high and she often turned tricks in the next room. She even tried to trade her daughter's innocence just to get some dope. As time passes, San's life would forever change, but not for the better. Witnessing her mother's murder as she sat hiding and scared in the next room and not knowing what to do, would give her the option of living with her father Jake. Sharing a wonderful father / daughter bond during her younger years, would soon come to a stop as San reached her adult years - as she began to show interest in the same sex, something her father Jake never approved of. Shunning and kicking her out to be on her own, the streets became her main family. Forming a pack with a two guys by the names of Corey and Coley, (later calling themselves: Major League), they caused havoc everywhere they went. They began robbing others until everything would unfortunately come to an end. San found herself locked up in prison and plans were put on hold. Upon her release, her "new plan" was to take over the streets of Charlotte and become the first Queen Pen.

Joplin, Missouri, Tornado of May 22, 2011

Joplin, Missouri, Tornado of May 22, 2011

American Society of Civil Engineers

Joplin, Missouri, Tornado of May 22, 2011: Structural Damage Survey and Case for Tornado-Resilient Building Codes presents the observations, findings, and recommendations of an engineering reconnaissance team that surveyed residential structures and schools in the tornado path shortly after the event. The tornado, which was rated a 5 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, cut a seven-mile swath through Joplin, Missouri; it destroyed more than 5,000 buildings and killed more than 150 people. The team’s data collection focused on recording the mechanisms of structural failure under tornado wind loads. One important finding is that failures could be attributed to inadequate load paths as well as to wind speeds that exceeded building code design levels. Compliance with the building code requirements for hurricane-prone areas would have mitigated some of the damage. Topics include: overview of the Joplin tornado; inspection methodology; performance of residential buildings; case studies of building performance; performance of commercial buildings and critical facilities; new design philosophy regarding tornadoes; conclusions and recommendations. This ground-breaking report is must-reading for structural engineers, construction professionals, building code officials, and risk managers working in tornado-prone regions of the United States.
